MacDill celebrates diversity at Black History Month luncheon
The 6th Air Refueling Wing team responsible for the heritage marker project unveils a “Black Troops Service Area” heritage marker during a Black History Month commemorative luncheon at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, Feb. 25, 2022. The heritage marker formally recognizes the service of thousands of African Americans who served in engineer aviation battalions during World War II. The efforts of these battalions, which trained at MacDill, expedited the end of the conflict and helped ensure an Allied victory. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Joshua Hastings)
